Title: The Three Musketeers
By: Alexandre Dumas
One of Dumas' most renowned stories, The Three Musketeers, follows young D'Artagnan in his quest to become a musketeer.
D'Artagnan is joined by the legenday trio, Athos, Porthos and Aramis. Together they strive to protect the throne of France from the
Cardinal and his deadly assassin, Milady de Winter. An amazing book, although written in old language, it easy to understand because
of the stories suspense and engaging plot. I would recommend this book to anyone, I enjoyed it thoroughly.
